CsSbBr, as a sort of novel lead-free perovskite single crystal, has the merits of high carrier mobility and a long diffusion length. However, the large-sized and high-crystallized CsSbBr single crystals are not easily obtained. Herein, we apply the vertical Bridgman method to grow centimeter-sized CsSbBr single crystal. The temperature-dependent crystal structure of CsSbBr is characterized in the temperature range of 100-400 K. A novel crystallographic and electronic structure anisotropy of the as-grown CsSbBr single crystal along the transmission directions of [100] and [001] is experimentally and theoretically proved. Owing to the layered two-dimensional (2D) structure of CsSbBr, quantum confinement effects prolong the lifetime of hot carriers, leading to their accumulation within the Sb-Br plane along the [100] direction, thereby resulting in a higher density of electronic states. Accordingly, the [100] device exhibits a carrier mobility higher than that of the [001] device, with the [100] device mobility being 4 orders of magnitude higher than that of the [001] device at 423 K, showing a remarkable anisotropy. The [100] device also shows responsivity ∼10 times higher than that of the [001] device.
溴化铯锑(CsSbBr)作为一种新型无铅钙钛矿单晶,具有载流子迁移率高和扩散长度长的优点。然而,大尺寸且高结晶度的溴化铯锑单晶并不容易获得。在此,我们采用垂直布里奇曼法生长厘米级的溴化铯锑单晶。在100 - 400 K的温度范围内对溴化铯锑的温度依赖性晶体结构进行了表征。通过实验和理论证明了所生长的溴化铯锑单晶沿[100]和[001]传输方向存在一种新的晶体学和电子结构各向异性。由于溴化铯锑的层状二维(2D)结构,量子限制效应延长了热载流子的寿命,导致它们在沿[100]方向的Sb - Br平面内积累,从而产生更高的电子态密度。因此,[100]器件的载流子迁移率高于[001]器件,在423 K时,[100]器件的迁移率比[001]器件高4个数量级,表现出显著的各向异性。[100]器件的响应度也比[001]器件高约10倍。
